"Sacrificial Love" Catholic Religious Medals Bracelet

I compassionate thee,
O most sorrowful Mother!
Thy heart was pierced
with a sword of grief
when Simeon foretold
to thee in the Temple
the ignominious death
and the desolation
of thy Divine and most dear Son,
which thou west destined
one day to witness.
By the great anguish
of thy suffering heart,
O gracious Queen of the universe,
impress upon my mind,
in life and in death,
the sacred Passion of Jesus
and shine own sorrows.

Amen.



I was inspired to create another very unique, symbolic and meaningful bracelet representing Our Lord's and Blessed Mother's Sacrificial Love

I used a our Lady of Sorrows vintage cameo as Her Sacrificial Love because as a mother knowing Her son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, will come to redeem us for Love She offered Herself to offer a Mother's Love to Our Lord and the anguish to surrender Him

Every time I create a bracelet with Our Lady of Sorrows, it brings me to tears to just imagine the pain of a mother for the love of humanity surrendered Her Son to such horrible death and the sacrifice Our Lord made for His Love as well

I used clear teardrop-shape beads to represent Our Lady's Tears

Virgin Mary OL Lourdes, Saints Religious Medal Bracelet


O Immaculate Virgin Mary,
Mother of Mercy,
You are the refuge of sinners,
the health of the sick,
and the comfort of the afflicted.
You know my wants,
my trou
bles, my sufferings.
By Your appearance at the Grotto of Lourdes
You made it a privileged sanctuary
where Your favors are given to people
streaming to it from the whole world.
Over the years countless sufferers
have obtained the
cure for their infirmities -
whether of soul, mind, or body.
Therefore I come to You
with limitless confidence
to implore Your motherly intercession.
Obtain, O loving Mother,
the grant of my requests.
Through gratitude for Your favors,
I will endeavor to imitate Your virtues,
that I may one day share in Your glory.

Amen.


   
I came across another beautiful medal of Our Lady of Lourdes to create another bracelet Honoring Our Beautiful Lady of Lourdes.

This is a vintage medal and used other vintage and new Catholic medals including Our Lord Jesus Christ, Our Lady of Miraculous Medal, Our Lady of Providence, St. Michael, St. Therese, St. Jude and others.

I used aqua color Czech. glass beads representing water and one stunning glass lampwork bead holding Our Lady's medal.
